And the Connected Sciences, at Yale College, New Haven, Ct •

this Institution, will be opened on the first of November. Pupils 
will however be received and temporarily accommodated on the 
1st of October. The Department of Chemistry applied to the Arts, 
&c., will be under the charge of Prof. B. Silliman, Jr. That of

Prof. John P. Norton. 
Every facility will be afforded to members of the College and 
all ot/iers who may wish to acquire a thorough knowledge of 
Elementary or Applied Chemistry, Mineralogy, and Metallurgy, 
and the terms of tuition will be as moderate as the nature of the 
case will admit, and proportioned to the requirements of the 
pupil. 
The Annual Course of Lectures on Elementary Chemistry, by 
Prof. B. Silliman, will commence on the 2d of October, at 12 M., 
and continue with five lectures each week until about January 
1st. Tickets $15. 
Prof. Norton will commence a Course of Lectures on the Ap¬ 
plication of Science to Agriculture, in January, 1848. This course 
will continue about two months, and there will be four lectures 
in each week. The object of these lectures will be to give the 
Farmer or others, a clear and connected view of both science and 
practice in their relations to each other. Experiments will be 
given, when they are necessary, to the clear understanding of the 
subject. The fee for this course will be $ 10. 
k- Soils, rocks, minerals, metallic ores, and other substances, will 
be promptly analysed on moderate terms. 
Arrangements will be made by which pupils in these depart¬ 
ments can enjoy the advantage of attending to other courses of 
Instruction in science, in this institution, which are open to the 
public; and they can also have easy access to large libraries and 
scientific collections. New Haven is a place of easy access from 
all parts of the Union, and is the resort of nearly six hundred stu¬ 
dents in the various departments. Board and lodging are procura¬ 
ble on very moderate terms. 
Additional particulars will be promptly supplied on application 
by letter or otherwise to B. SILLIMAN, Jr.

TO WOOL-GROWERS AND BREEDERS OF FINE 
SHEEP- 
REV. L. G. BINGHAM, of Williston, Vt., during the past sea¬ 
son lias purchased from A. TaintorJEsq., of Hartford, Connecti¬ 
cut, ei«ht of his imported Merino ewes—one buck lamb, and his 
splendid stock buck—the sire of the. very superior lambs which 
have been sold from his flock the past season. This buck was 
brought from France, when a lamb ; was one year old last Janu 
ary—was sheared the 10th of August, last year, soon after arriv 
ing—and was sheared on the same day of the month this year— 
having worn his fleece one year to a day—was clean washed 
three days before shearing, and his fleece weighed fourteen lbs., 
of fine wool. His stock proves to be of rare excellence, and his 
lambs by the imported ewes, have sold from $100 to $200 
each. Having often been applied to, to put him to American 
Merino ewes, I have concluded to do so to a limited extent. The 
price will be $5 a head, to be paid on taking away the ewes. Ap¬ 
plications must be made early. I have rented the farm and all 
the stock of Rev. L. G. Bingham, and all communications must 
be addressed to me at this place, Williston, Vt. The buck lamb 
herein mentioned is from one of the best of the imported ewes 
and will make a magnificent sheep. The next crop ol buck lambs 
will also be for sale. First come—first served. 
When it is considered that all the buck lambs from this buck 
have sold for $100 and upwards, the price charged must be re¬ 
garded as very reasonable. - B. F. BINGHAM.
